Health issue aside, it is actually cheaper vaping as compared to analog?

One Time off
- Mod
- tank
- Atomizer

- Locally juice cost around S$1/ml(I'm in Canada now, cost more if unless I buy buck)
- Cost charging batteries
- Cost replacing batteries(rechargeable got lifespan one okay)
- Shipping fees

For RBA
- Wire
- Coil
- O-ring & spares
- Shipping fees

For expandable
- Atomizer
- Tank

Plus serious player go into
- Coiling tools/rod
- Torch
- Pincer
- Meter
- Shipping fees(again)

Mods, tanks, RBAs those kinda stuff are usually a one time thing.

For kanthal, i bought a spool and usually I rebuild once or twice a month on three different RBA RTA and there's tons of kanthal left. Cottons, tweesers, rods/screws - super cheap, self explanatory.

Monthly expenditures are usually on juices only.

I am a newbie, but in my humblest opinion, I don't ever see how analogs could ever be cheaper than vaping. Well in the purest dollars and cents sense, perhaps in certain countries, or if all your analogs were from DFS, analogs would be cheaper. I am trying to get into mods and RBAs, and by my calculations, even if I got into being a hobbyist, and buy every RBA and Mod made by the reputable brands, and try them out first, I imagine I would eventually just fall back on a few for my daily use. It would just be a matter of time before it "breaks even" and then it would be savings from then on...

I am sure there are those out there that absolutely has to try every new model available though ;), to that, I really don't know how much you could chalk up in your bills.

But at the end of the day.... once you take into consideration the multitude of medical bills you may chalk up one day from analogs.......

IMHO, that will have to depends on which approach one takes.

For my own opinion, it doesn't matter whether is there a saving or created another new hobby out of it, the utmost objective for me is for my health sake. We all know that smoking is already bad for help (maybe too bad for me to realise since i have already gotten the warthing timor), but i hope it is still not too late for me to start now. If truly it turn out to be another hobby (usually for men), well it should still be a healthy hobby.

This is just my opinion reflecting on myself… please don't flame me :p

Oh yes something I missed out on! I was clearing my drawers the other day and found a ...... load of lighters...... I think in my long time as a smoker, I can say with confidence I have only ever used a lighter until there was no more gas for about 5 lighters. I don't even dare try to figure out how many I have bought just because I forgot to bring mine. LOL
